I would like to take the opportunity to introduce our new colleague, Danel Cove. He has already started to actively support our Danza y Movimiento Team and will be substituting for me when I go on maternity leave in January 2010. We're delighted that Danel has jumped aboard and we're looking forward to the teamwork.

The DVD-series "Legends of..." remembers the Lippmann + Rau festivals between1965 and 1969. The festival casts include names of artists with the highest esteem in their countries and internationally. The recordings made by the German broadcasting companies SWF and WDR in those years during the festivals (camera for Michael Ballhaus) are of extreme cultural value. They often contain the only pictures available of the musicians at that time, documents which cannot be found even in their countries of origin. The DVD-edition won the prize of the "Deutsche Schallplattenkritik" (3/2009) in the category DVD-video-production.
